5th Avenue
Alright, so I mentioned in my last post that I would be bringing the spirit of Christmas into my next few posts in order to observe the holiday. If anyone has been watching the news, they have reported that nearly 30% of Christmas shoppers in the U.S. did not even starttheir Christmas shopping until yesterday. Today’s outfit is entirely inspired by every Manhattanite’s favorite 5th Avenue shopper; all my New Yorkers out there know exactly which ones I’m talking about. The ones that own the street, and strut their stuff up and down it while they spend loads and loads of cash:
Â
Now, this is an outfit that some of the people who know me out there may already be familiar with. It’s quite possibly one of my absolute faves, and since I almost always am asked where these glasses are from, I figured now would be a good time to throw everyone a bone in the spirit of Christmas. Anyway, it seems that the starting point for this outfit was the top half of Alla Ruff of Veschi’s “Muffin Top” dress; from the moment I saw it I thought it was such an original idea and I knew I just had to fuss with it to see how it might work with other items in my inventory. To balance out all the business going on up top, I’ve decided to pair it with this sleek and sexy pencil skirt and tied the two together with an over-sized belt. Normally open-toed shoes are not acceptable for the winter, but when used in conjunction with a nice pair of complimentary tights, I don’t see anything wrong with showing off you’re new pedicure. To bring the whole look together I’ve accessorized with extra long leather gloves, a bow-tie scarf, and some truly eccentric jewelry and sunglasses.

Thank you all so much for your kind words, I’m really glad that my posts are being received so well! <3
See you in a few hours with another post!
I think I own most of the listed products or at least comparable things already, but I have never thought to put them together like this. It’s amazing what you are able to see can work together. It looks fabulous.
So hot! You are just dripping with fashionista attitude in those pics.
Damnnnn! Look at those calves! And stop looking down on the 30% because I was in that category, I sense that little elitist thang you’ve got going on. Okay but seriously, why don’t I ever see you actually wearing outfits like this in-world?
haha, RT - we clearly don’t spend enough time together.
Well Miss Gray, when you’re ready to hang out with me let me know. I was beginning to think that you were a little too “Funky Fresh” for me. :D!
